Rep. Louie Gohmert Slams Immigration Bill on TheBlaze TV

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), a vocal opponent of the proposed immigration bill, joined 'Wilkow!' on Monday to discuss immigration reform, border security and the chances of the "Gang of Eight" bill passing in the house.

Gohmert agreed with host Andrew Wilkow that the immigration bill in its current form would forever change the concept that suggests the government is an enforcer of the law.

The "Gang of Eight" immigration reform bill passed in the Senate last week with the support of 14 Republicans and the full Democratic caucus. Supporters point out that the bill will provide a 13-year path to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented immigrants and provide significant increases in resources allocated for securing the border.

A final push for the bill came with the Hoeven-Corker amendment which provides federal funds for significant increases in border patrol agents, additional border fencing and a mandatory employment verification system, among other conditions before the transition to Lawful Permanent Resident or Green Card status.
